Although I doubt they can do as much damage to his character as X-Men 3 did to Cyclops, Professor X and Jean Grey. But I can't say for certain until I see it.

As a huge fan of Deadpool (He's my favorite comic character and I have all of his appearances), I'd say the ****ed him up just as bad as the ones you mentioned, if not more. Which is really too bad because Reynolds was born to play the part and at the very beginning he totally nailed the character.

Deadpool has always has healing powers (that are stronger than Wolverine's, as well).

Well I finally saw X-Men Origins: Wolverine today. I liked it (probably a little bit more than X-Men 3). Definitely not without it's flaws though.

Spoiler:

However I can understand why the Deadpool fans were upset. Had Weapon XI been another random mutant and NOT Deadpool, then I would have enjoyed it far better. It's just the fact that they did that to Deadpool is what angers me. Perhaps they will eventually say that Weapon XI was a clone of Deadpool instead? I also would have much more liked to see Gambit fighting Weapon XI with Wolverine instead of Sabretooth.

best Xmen movie yet!

i thought it was alright. yeah it wasn't without it's flaws, but good movies do occassionally have flaws. i like how it sets up for the first X-Men movie. btw, did anyone stay for the stuff during and after the credits?

Everyone sing it with me now!

"He's a lumberjack and he's okay!
He works all night and he works all day!"

Okay, now that I've got that out of my system for the second time after seeing the movie, I can continue.

It was alright. A good way to spend two hours as well; watching everyone beat the crap out of everyone. Everyone has mentioned the faults of the movie before me, but I think the most jarring things was Sabertooth and Wolverine's relationship.

Spoiler:

Okay, so I was laughing all the way through the movie as Sabertooth kept calling Wolverine "Jimmy", but... seriously, some of the parts between the two seemed to be a bit forced. Kinda sets up a bit of a plot hole from the first X-Men movie as well with the two (unless Sabertooth also lost his memory but thinking about it too much makes my head hurt).

Then there was Dudepeel.

Goddamn ****in' Dudepeel.

He was fine at the start of the movie, but once he was all powered up and mouth sewn shut and all that... UGH.

Okay I'm done ranting now.

Spoiler:

see, i completely agree with you about Deadpool. i was kind of expecting something better than what they gave us. and what was up with the "Jimmy" thing? is is name like Jimmy Logan or what? and i did kinda know from the cartoon that they're brothers. also, lol at Patrick Stewart's cameo. i said to my buddy, that on the DVD commentary it'll be like "this scene cost us $1,000,000 and that was on Stewart's face alone! but it was cool they tried to put him in. Cyclops was a pussy, but i guess, he was still young "did i get them?" also, Gambit was pretty cool

all in all, it was a good movie. not a master piece by any means, but at least better than the last two X-men movies

*lol* During that scene all I could think of was how I always thought the name of the show "Axe Men" sounded like X-Men....and now Logan is both! Also since most X books have the X as the main capitol letter (IE eXcalibur or X-men Xtreme) he could have been an eXtreme logger too since that's the Canadian logging show.

Oh and as for his name. His birth name is James Howlett. Logan was his biological father's surname. His mother was born Elizabeth Hudson. Thru her Logan is related to everybody with that surname he's ever met...and killed.

Saw it yesterday eh it was ok wasn't the worst movie I've seen in recent years (30 days of night anyone), it also wasn't the best the best (the last Batman movie).
I can see why people are bitching but I enjoyed it for a movie about mutants some things are quite out of place but eh what movie doesn't change things up from the comics these days.
The one thing I didn't really care for was Gambit oddly enough, guess I expected more.
Over all I'd give the movie like a B- or C+

Christ, you seriously thought this bollo0cks was better than X-Men 2?

[Jester]

X-2 is by far the best X-Men movie...Wolverine may have trumped 3, but it also suffers from the same malady, to many mutants with not enough screen time.

My thoughts exactly. In my opinion, number 1 should have been this movie.

[Candy Kappa]

I don't like X-2, they made nightcrawler a wuss in that movie

[Brodie]

I can't believe you people. X2 is bad? Better than X3?

Jesus H. Christ, Chief.

[Mecha Cow]

I know it's a matter of opinion and all, but I'll never be able to take anyone who honestly thinks X3 and Wolverine are good movies seriously. I mean... wow.

[GK Punk]

I thought Wolverine was decent. I wouldn't go see it a second time, but it was a lot better than X3.

[Ra]

X2 is the best damn movie of the whole bunch in my opinion. If anyone thinks that Wolverine is a better movie, they really need to watch the two movies side-by-side. I always loved X2, and I stand by it being the best of the X-Men line.

Still, it's everyone's opinion.

[GK Punk]

I actually agree completely with you on that. X2 still stands the highest.

Twilight! Now there's a movie that was great. I wish all vampire movies were more like Twilight.

Spoiler:

Was the sarcasm obvious? Please say you could tell I was kidding....Oh well I guess it gives me an excuse.
